I'm a busy parent and a gym owner who doesn't always have time to workout myself. Most of my clients are busy, too. This program uses the same strategy I use with all my clients to help fit movement into their day.
Do you have 30 minutes? Great. Perform the whole workout. Do you have 10 minutes? Choose 1 of the 3 microworkouts (ground movement, strength/skill, or circuit). Breaking up your movement routine is a great way to fit movement into our lives and still progress toward health and fitness goals.
Why natural movement? It is a great way to build a base level of fitness. You will do everything from crawling and hanging to running and lifting.
Why 4 weeks? Because sometimes we just need a reset. A place to start over to guide us. Can this program be repeated? Yes, repeat as many times as you like. You get it for a year. If you are interested in more programming, reach out to our coaches. They would be more than happy to help you reach your movement goals.

I am nowhere near an athlete, never have been, but after attending MovNat classes with Rock, I have surprised myself with what I am able to do! I am stronger and more confident."
